9. Emilie C.
About: I have worked with animals my whole life. I grew up helping out on a farm. I have 7 dogs at my parents house. Now living on my own I have 1 dog and 1 cat. I use to work at a veterinary clinic and I currently work full time with animals now as well. I take care of my own dog and cat everyday. I only work until 3pm so I have all afternoon to spend time with your pets! I care for animals as I do my own. I have a pug and pugs have special needs more so then other breeds. I know basic veterinary care as well if your pet needs it.
10. Layken W.
“Layken has been great with my pup, Olive! Olive can be a stubborn dog but Layken handled it wonderfully. She was always great with communication and flexible when I needed her to come earlier than usual on short notice. Would definitely recommend her!”
11. Hannah G.
“Ever since I have known her, Hannah has had a love for animals. She has always had a cat or 2 by her side or a dog. She is gentle and kind but knows when she can play rough with a dog or puppy. Sometimes they need that. But she knows when they need the gentle touch. She hurts when they hurt, that’s how she knows to be gentle with them. She’s good with children that way too. She will make a great mother one day.”
12. Ned H.
“Ned H. took great care of my cats and followed instructions perfectly. My cats enjoyed his company! I wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again.”
13. Lila M.
About: I live a very active lifestyle (running and hiking are my primary hobbies) and most of my time spent with your dog will reflect that. Lots of play time! I have a 3 year old border collie who loves making new friends. Great for energetic dogs whose owners’ schedules aren’t flexible enough to take them out and burn their excess energy! Also able to accommodate dogs who are shy/nervous and need a quieter environment or one without other animals. even available for the holidays! Happy to care for dogs big and small, young and old. I can’t wait to meet my new furry friends! Available for boarding any time- I am available for walks and drop-ins after 5pm on weekdays. Likely available for all holidays as well if you’re out of town! I have a fenced in yard and an active dog to keep yours company! I can also keep them separated if you prefer as well.
14. Ana S.
“Ana was great with Tundra! Dependable, trustworthy and attentive to our big boy!”
15. Octavia W.
About: I am currently a pre vet student looking for a side job. I am currently an animal caretaker for Acadiana animal aid . I am experienced with all types of meds, behavior , sizes and breeds! I have plenty of my own cats, and open to them as well! I am available later afternoons Tuesday and Thursday after school. I am also available on Monday and Wednesdays any time! I am usually working as a caretaker part time over the weekends. I make sure the animals are very comfortable without fearful behavior of me being a new person and really work on that trust. I love to incorporate my spare time as small training techniques such as a sit or spin if I can and really work those dog brains!
16. Hillary S.
“Hillary watched my pets (two cats and a dog) for a couple days while I was out of town. She's very animal friendly and very professional. She had no problem following my directions for feeding them and walking our dog, Meeko. When I came back home my pets seemed very happy and were well taken care of while I was away.”
17. Destiny L.
“Destiny was an amazing dog sitter for my children’s pups! Her check-ins were consistent and effective for daily interactions with the pups. She communicated very well throughout the scheduled drop in visits. I would highly recommend Destiny for any future dog sitting opportunities!”
18. Jennifer R.
“I highly recommend Jennifer as she is very passionate and it shows in how she cares for dogs and other animals at our local animal rescue Hearts Alive Village. She is great with the dogs and we enjoy having her join us when she can!”
